(Norfolk Island Pine.) Various names have been sug- gested for this grand plant to properly convey to the mind the appearance of it. Some have called it the '' Christmas Tree Palm " from its resemblance to a Christmas tree ; others have called it the " Star Palm, " because the leaves are arranged to form a perfect star, but no descriptive name can give any adequate idea of its beauty. It has deep green, feathery foliage, arranged in whorls, rising one above the other at regular distances ; its symmetry of form, grace and beauty of foliage are unequaled in the vege- table kingdom. It is easily grown in the house and is highly orna- mental. (See cut.)

For a time it was generally supposed that these could not be grown in the open air with success, but extensive plantings of them in various sections of the country have demonstrated their adaptability for this purpose. Nothing can exceed the brilliancy of their colors, the delicacy of their tints, the richness of their waxy flowers, the gorgeousness of their effect in masses, or their graceful appearance in beds or borders. From the time the first blossom appears until all growth is stopped by frost, they are never out of bloom. (See cut.) SINGLE TUBEROUS BEGONIAS. Separate Colors.
